I know I'm off, but I have to share the moment when everything seemed to stop.. 📷🔭🌑 NikonD750 + Sigma 150-600 Field photo, Canon Eos D80 with Tokina 22mm #photography #astrophotography #eclipse

The diamond ring, a wonderful bright explosion with a lovely fire light surrounds the ring of the totality

The sun turned to a dark point sorrounded by fire, suspended on the sky over a green field of hills, some clouds on the side gave even more drama to the moment

Baily pearls appeared on the top, while the sun light crossed the moon mountains and valleys, also some magenta protuberances showed from the sun's surface...

A bit of the totality, a black ring sorrounded by those golden filaments, brights and flares

The sign of Kuala Lumpur, the lights at night, the symbol of a country. 🇲🇾⛽ 📸🌿📷 #nightphotography #photography

The Petronas Twin Towers rise above Kuala Lumpur as a symbol of modern Malaysia, steel and light shaped into something almost timeless.
At night, they glow in warm, golden tones, emerging into the dark sky like twin structures forged from light itself.
From below, the city pulls your gaze upward. Not always to the stars… but to what we’ve built in their place.
Between symmetry and scale, there’s a quiet reminder:
we don’t just live beneath the sky, sometimes, we redefine it.

Flying silhouettes at Langkawi, a beautiful Malaysia island. 📷🌿📸 #photography #nature #sunset

The sun, heavy with the day it carries, melts into the edge of the Adaman sea, spilling fire across a sky that slowly surrenders to dusk.
Above that quiet farewell, a drifting parasail floats like a fragile thought between worlds, two silhouettes suspended between light and shadow.
The ocean darkens, the sky deepens, and for a brief, unrepeatable moment, everything seems to pause…
as if the horizon itself were breathing, and time had chosen to stand still.

Unforgettable moments, when you know you're a part of nature, when you feel they trust on your calm, you feel their peace. 📸🌿📷 #nature #photography #mammals

A long-tailed macaque mother sits on a forest branch, calmly feeding while her infant clings to her side. Just a few meters away, both glance toward the me with quiet curiosity, neither alarmed nor disturbed. The young one reaches out with a small, tentative hand, as if exploring the presence before them. In the soft green light of the Malaysian jungle, the moment captures a rare balance, wildness continuing undisturbed. When you feel you're part of them

The forest has kings.. and barons 📷🌿📸 #nature #photography #inverts

A Horsfield’s Baron (Tanaecia iapis) rests on a tropical leaf, its wings displaying a deep contrast between dark brown tones and a vivid blue band, quietly blending into the layered light of the Malaysian forest.

I've soo many amazing photos to share that I don't know which one to share 😆 Malaysia and its amazing biodiversity 📸🌿📷 #photography #birds #mammals #inverts

A baby monkey plenty of curiosity sorrounded by all the green leaves. They're so curious and very used to people, maybe too much. His pretty face is totally chef by the sunlight, while he's looking where will be the next game he'll do

A wonderful scarce blue tiger butterfly, just resting on a branch. His wings show a wonderful pattern of pale blue stripes and dots, while the body is covered with white dots. The deep green of the forest still makes it more beautiful

An amazing crested serpent eagle with a funny expressive face. I got this photo right on the moment that he was screaming to other eagles of same specie. He's perched on a dry branch of a giant tree, showing those wonderful yellow eyes. The brown feathers covers it's body, but black on the head.

The common hill myna, perched on a big branch covered by small green leaves. It's orange beck is open, with those metallic dark blue feathers covering the body. Amazing and super intelligent bird, can imitate even better than parrots the human voice

New country, new friends ☺️ 📷🌿📸 #photography #nature #mammals

Perched high among broad banana leaves, a young long tailed macaque pauses mid-bite, holding a half-peeled fruit as if time itself had gently tapped his shoulder. The jungle wraps around him in deep, breathing greens, layered, humid, alive, yet he sits in perfect stillness, suspended between instinct and awareness.
Soft, filtered light brushes his fur, revealing delicate textures against the smooth, sweeping curves of the leaves, feeling nature rising around him like a cathedral of foliage. The pale yellow of the banana quietly interrupts the sea of green, a small, human echo in an otherwise untamed world.

And before the big trip, last weekend made a last trip to the mountains... To the stars... 📸🌿📷 #astrophotography #photography #nature

Beneath the frozen silence of Esterri d’Àneu, the Pyrenean mountains rise like sleeping giants, carved in shadow against a freshly washed sky.
The night is not black, it is a deep, mineral blue, scattered with stars that seem to breathe.
In the valley, small human lights flicker modestly, as if asking permission from the firmament.
Above, the universe unfolds without haste.
Below, the earth rests.

Time to hunt, but with elegance. 📷🌿📸🪶 #birds #nature #photography

A red kite cuts across the open sky, wings fully extended in a display of effortless command. Suspended in perfect balance, it carries its prey firmly in its talons, a reminder that grace and survival are inseparable in the wild.
The light brushes its russet feathers with warmth, revealing the intricate patterns beneath its wings. Every line of its body speaks of precision, the slight curve of the tail, the steady gaze, the quiet power in its flight.

A touch by blue, a last trip before the great move 💙 📸🌿📷 #photography #nature

In the stillness of the blue hour, the Noguera Pallaresa River glides quietly through Guingueta d’Àneu, holding the last light of the day like a secret. Snow-dusted peaks rise in the distance, their summits brushed with the fading glow of sunset, while the valley slowly surrenders to twilight.
The watermoves so slowly that becomes a mirror, reflecting mountains, bare winter trees, and the deepening sky. Shadows settle along the riverbanks, and the world seems to pause between day and night, suspended, weightless, almost breathless.
There is no rush here. Only the gentle transition of light and the silence of the last light of the day.

Sergio 📷🔭🌲@sergiospototo· Feb 15

Even after the rain, warmth remains, and sometimes, it perches lightly, crowned in water, waiting to be seen. 🧡 📷🌿📸🪶 #birds #photography #nature

A small ember of winter rests upon the edge of the roof.
Pippo, yes, him, the faithful visitor, stands there as if he has been placed gently by a careful hand. The rain had passed not long before; the air still remembers it. Everything feels rinsed, hushed, tender. The world behind him dissolves into a creamy blur, as though reality itself has softened to let him remain sharp, present, undeniable.
His chest burns with that quiet orange glow, a living coal against the muted browns and silvers of a damp afternoon. He is round, composed, unafraid. Not frozen, simply still. Watching.
And there, upon his small crown, three droplets rest like a delicate diadem. Three tiny glass beads, balanced with improbable grace. They do not weigh him down. They crown him, like a woodland sovereign wearing rain instead of gold. The blurred lights to the left shimmer like distant memories of the rain, suspended in time, as if the sky had forgotten to collect its tears.

Almonds, always inaugurating the Spring 🌸 📸🌿📷 #photography #nature

Soft almond blossoms glow in the warm light, their pale petals almost translucent against the darker background. The branches are still bare of leaves, thin and delicate, crisscrossing gently through the frame. Each flower has a subtle blush of pink at its center, adding warmth to the creamy white petals. The shallow depth of field blurs the background into a smooth haze, making the blossoms appear luminous and fragile. An early promise of spring suspended in the fading light.

Maybe is Valentine's Day, maybe is the Spring feeling. ❤️ 📷🌿📸🪶 #photography #nature #birds

Two Eurasian collared doves stand face to face on a sunlit ledge, their bodies angled toward each other with quiet symmetry. Their soft beige plumage catches the warm light, revealing subtle patterns in the feathers, while the delicate black collar at the nape of their necks gives each bird its unmistakable signature. Their red eyes meet at close range, and for a brief instant, their beaks nearly touch. The background dissolves into a smooth wash of green, isolating the pair in a moment that feels both intimate and seasonal. The light is gentle, shaping their forms without harshness, as if the air itself had softened for them.

The equilibriumof a goldfinch for a snack 😋 📸🌿📷🪶 #birds #nature #photography

A European goldfinch balances delicately on the slender stems of hierba cana, its body tilted forward in a precise act of trust and instinct. Wings half open, it turns itself into a living counterweight, revealing flashes of yellow and black that catch the sunlight like a brief flare of fire. Nothing here is static: this is equilibrium in motion.
The fragile plant bends under the bird’s weight, yet does not break. Seed heads tremble as the goldfinch reaches for them with practiced ease, extracting nourishment from what most would overlook. This is an ancient agreement between bird and weed, repeated countless times, unnoticed, essential.

Sergio 📷🔭🌲@sergiospototo· Feb 7

Seeing them in the nature is so cool! I see them sometimes too, between the brushes like if they were hummingbirds 😆 but this one found the resort at home, and they love to have a bath, and then look for some snacks around the trees😆

The tiny firecrest having a shower. They love to go directly under the water fall😆

My loved friend Benny, the tiny hunter having a bath of gold. 📷🌿📸🪶 #birds #photography #nature

Benny, the Sardinian warbler, emerges half-hidden among the blades of grass, as if the light itself had decided to reveal him only in part. The low sun filters through the long, sharp leaves, drawing golden lines across the scene and wrapping the bird in an old, almost ritual play of light and shadow. His reddish eye, alert and inquisitive, betrays the small hunter at work, patiently scanning the ground in search of tiny prey.
Behind him, the rough base of an olive tree trunk anchors the scene. Its earthy texture contrasts with the vibrant green foreground, turning the image into something intimate and grounded. Nothing is fully exposed, and that is where the magic lies: nature does not display itself, it whispers. Benny does not pose, he belongs. And in that quiet, half-concealed presence, an entire way of being is revealed: discreet, precise, and deeply free.

So little, so pretty, this little goldcrest loves to visit my garden. 📸🌿📷🪶 #birds #photography #nature

Perched lightly among the slender branches of a jasmine plant, a goldcrest rests for a fleeting moment. Its tiny body, round and almost weightless, seems borrowed from the air itself. A soft yellow stripe crowns its head, catching the light against the cool blue background, while its dark, alert eye reflects the quiet awareness of the forest. The jasmine branches weave a delicate lattice around the bird, their thin stems, buds and sparse leaves framing the scene without enclosing it. Everything feels suspended, as if time had slowed to match the fragility of the moment. The shallow depth of field melts the background into gentle blues and greens, allowing the goldcrest to emerge as a clear, luminous presence. A brief pause in the undergrowth, where the smallest bird in the forest meets the subtle elegance of jasmine, reminding us that true beauty often whispers, and disappears, just as softly as it arrived.

When the moonlight makes everything bright after the rain... 💫💜 📷🌿📸 #photography #nature #nightscapes

After the rain, the moon rises and claims the scene. Its light falls from the side, slow and deliberate, bathing the landscape in silver. An old asphalt road stretches forward, still wet, transformed into a luminous ribbon, no longer just a path, but a quiet passage of light. The puddles scattered along it become small mirrors, holding the moon within them. A low dry-stone wall follows the curve of the road, rough and patient, a reminder of hands that once placed each stone with purpose, a carob tree stands firm at the edge of the path, its dark silhouette anchoring the scene, guarding the entrance to this nocturnal corridor. In the distance, a thin band of clouds rests just above the treetops, softening the horizon, as if the sky itself were pausing to watch. The sky shines in blue, with the bright moon illuminating it, bit still some stars want to shine. Everything is familiar, a road, a tree, a wall.. and yet nothing feels ordinary. Under the moon’s glow, the wet ground becomes a path of silver, almost magical, inviting the eye to follow it forward, not knowing exactly where it leads. A moment suspended between rain and silence, where the night reveals how light can turn the simplest place into something quietly sacred.

The beauty of resilience, the beauty of night dresses in purple 💜 📸🌿📷 #photography #nature #nightphotography

In the quiet of the night, small magenta flowers rise delicately from the ground, their color glowing softly against the darkness. The light is gentle and selective, touching only what needs to be seen, leaving the rest to dissolve into shadow. Each petal feels intentional, almost intimate, as if the flower were revealing itself only to those willing to look closely.
The background melts into warm, distant points of light, the soft bokeh like far-off embers, suggesting a world that continues beyond the frame, blurred and hushed. The shallow depth of field turns the scene into a whisper rather than a statement, guiding the eye toward the fragile beauty standing firm in the foreground.
There is resilience here: life blooming quietly at night thought the road, unnoticed by most, yet fully alive.
A reminder that beauty does not always announce itself, sometimes it simply waits, glowing softly, in the dark.

Hints of sunlight, like a tiny phoenix emerging on the sky. 📷🌿📸🪶 #photography #nature #birds

A small blue tit pauses on a bare branch, like a brief note written in the margin of the sky. The blue above is clean and deep, almost absolute; it does not compete, it embraces. Against this vast clarity, the bird seems to suspend time itself, light, alert, its chest washed in yellow like an early whisper of spring. Everything is simple, and therefore beautiful.
The sunlight strikes from the side, shaping the scene with a quiet play of light and shadow, giving volume to the bird and a gentle depth to the moment.

Like a blues, trapped by the forest 🩵🤍💚 📸🌿📷 #photography #nature

A hint of the Mediterranean sea is showing up between high pine trees and different trees in between that gives a palette of greens. The sky, between blue and white hues, shows a shining light that is reflected on the sea, drawing silhouettes of the further trees

And the land is breathing again after the rain, and the stars could show they're still there, waiting patiently to show their brightness. 📷🌿📸 #photography #nightscapes

A quiet night landscape after the rain.
The sky has cleared, revealing a soft scatter of stars above the dark outline of the forest. Below, the land remains heavy and damp, holding on to the night’s moisture.
A small stream runs along the lower left of the frame, barely visible in the darkness, reflecting faint traces of light as it winds through the vegetation. Trees stand still on either side, framing a moment of calm after the weather has passed.

Sometimes, all we can do is wait until the rainshower is over.. 📸🌿📷🌧️🪶 #photogtaphy #birds #nature

A turtle dove shelters from the rain, perched quietly on a bare branch.
Raindrops cling to its feathers, darkening the soft greys and browns of its plumage. The bird remains still, eyes half-closed, conserving warmth and energy as the weather passes.
The blurred background strips the scene down to its essentials: bird, rain, and patience. There is no drama here, only calm endurance. A small, everyday moment that speaks of resilience and quiet coexistence with the elements.
